Heron Retreat | Walk2Beach, Heated Pool, BBQ, Beach Gear, Backyard

  • Welcome to Heron Retreat, your luxurious beachside escape in beautiful Pass Christian, Mississippi. Just a two-minute walk from the sugar-white sand and only an hour from New Orleans, this stunning contemporary home offers the perfect blend of coastal elegance, comfort, and relaxation.

    This bright, beautifully designed coastal home was made for easy beach days, long afternoons by the pool, and evenings spent together. With spacious gathering areas, three private bedroom suites, and plenty of room to spread out, you get the comfort of home with all the fun of a Gulf Coast getaway.

    Inside Heron Retreat:

    - 3 bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bathroom
    - Bright, open-concept living + dining space
    - Gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances + large island
    - Cozy fireplace
    - High-speed Wi-Fi
    - Full laundry room
    - Full-home generator
    - Central AC/Heat

    Sleeping Arrangements: 3 Bedrooms | Sleeps 9 Guests
    - Bedroom 1: 1 King Bed
    - Bedroom 2: 1 King Bed
    - Bedroom 3: 1 Full Bed + 1 Twin Bunk Bed with Twin Trundle (Sleeps 5)

    Your Private Backyard Oasis Contains:
    - Heated saltwater pool
    - Fully fenced backyard
    - BBQ grill
    - Front + back porches
    - Outdoor bathroom conveniently located near the pool

    And the beach? It’s basically your neighbor.

    You’re only about a 2-minute walk from the sand, and we make beach days easy with a wagon, chairs, umbrella, toys, floaties, and more provided for your stay. Load up the wagon, walk down to the water, and you’re there.

    When you’re ready to head home, come back for an afternoon by the pool, fire up the grill, or relax on the porch and enjoy the Gulf Coast air.
    Prime Properties Guest Rules & Stay Standards:
    Our goal is to provide every guest with a clean, safe, comfortable, and accurately represented stay. These standards are intended to protect our guests, our property owners, our neighbors, and the homes entrusted to our care.
    By booking and occupying the property, guests agree to follow the rules below, along with any property-specific requirements included in the listing or arrival information.

    1. Arrival Inspection & Reporting Concerns
    Please take a few minutes to look over the home when you arrive.
    Any cleanliness concerns, existing damage, missing items, maintenance issues, or conditions that may affect your stay should be reported to Prime Properties within three (3) hours of check-in, preferably through our direct phone line and with photos when applicable.
    This reporting window gives our team a reasonable opportunity to verify the condition and provide a timely solution during your stay. Concerns first reported substantially later in the reservation or after departure may be more difficult to verify and may limit the remedies we are able to offer.
    Urgent safety, water, electrical, heating, access, or other significant issues should be reported immediately.

    2. Smoking & Vaping
    Smoking and vaping are not permitted inside the home, garage, or any other designated smoke-free area of the property.
    Guests may be responsible for reasonable costs associated with smoke remediation, odor treatment, additional cleaning, damaged furnishings, or other restoration required as a result of smoking or vaping. Where permitted and properly disclosed, smoking-related remediation charges may begin at $200 and may increase based on the extent of the work required.

    3. Pets & Assistance Animals
    Only pets permitted by the individual property`s listing may stay at the property. All required pets must be included on the reservation or approved by Prime Properties before arrival.
    Unauthorized or undisclosed pets may result in an additional $250 charge, where permitted by the booking platform and applicable law.
    Approved pets are subject to the pet fee disclosed with the reservation.
    Guests are responsible for:
    Picking up pet waste both indoors and outdoors.
    Preventing pets from causing excessive mess, odor, damage, or disturbance.
    Paying reasonable costs associated with pet-related damage or cleaning beyond normal turnover.
    Uncollected pet waste may result in an additional cleanup charge.
    Registered Service Animals will be accommodated in accordance with applicable law and the policies of the booking platform. Please note that ESA’s (emotional support animals) are not registered service animals. Prime Properties does not charge a pet fee for qualifying Service Animals. Guests remain responsible for damage caused by an animal to the same extent they would be responsible for other damage caused during the reservation.

    4. Check-In & Check-Out Times
    Please observe the check-in and checkout times listed with your reservation so our teams have adequate time to prepare the property between guests.
    Early check-in or late checkout must be requested at least 24 hours in advance and is subject to availability. A fee may apply depending on the amount of additional time requested.
    Requests requiring a substantial extension may require booking an additional night.
    Unauthorized late departures that interfere with housekeeping or an incoming reservation may result in an additional charge, including up to $50 per hour where disclosed and permitted.

    5. Registered Guests, Visitors & Events
    The person named on the reservation must be part of the group staying at the property unless the booking platform allows otherwise or Prime Properties provides written approval in advance.
    Only the number of overnight guests included on the reservation may occupy the property unless additional guests are approved.
    Parties, events, receptions, or other gatherings exceeding the property`s approved occupancy are not permitted without prior written authorization.
    The booking guest is responsible for the conduct of all members of their party and any approved visitors.

    6. Cancellation & Date Changes
    The cancellation policy shown on the listing at the time of booking applies to the reservation.
    Requests to change reservation dates do not automatically override the cancellation terms associated with the original reservation.

    7. Starter Supplies & Consumables
    Prime Properties provides a starter supply of common household items such as toilet paper, paper towels, soaps, trash bags, dishwashing products, and similar essentials.
    These supplies are intended to help guests get started and are not necessarily stocked for the entire length of every reservation. Guests are responsible for purchasing additional consumable supplies if needed during their stay unless otherwise stated in the listing.

    8. Lost & Found
    Prime Properties is not responsible for personal belongings left at the property.
    If you believe you left something behind, contact Guest Services as soon as possible. When an item can be located and returned, a $50 fee will apply and must be paid before shipment.
    Items will generally be held for 14 days after checkout. Items not claimed within that period may be discarded or donated.

    9. Damage, Missing Items & Excessive Cleaning
    Please report accidental damage or broken items as soon as possible. Early communication often allows us to resolve an issue quickly and prevent further damage.
    When practical, please leave damaged or broken items in a visible location rather than throwing them away.
    Guests may be responsible for reasonable repair, replacement, specialized cleaning, or labor costs resulting from damage, missing property, misuse, or conditions beyond normal use of the home.
    Charges will be supported by documentation when required by the booking platform.

    10. Furniture & Property Setup
    Please do not relocate furniture, mattresses, televisions, large décor, outdoor furnishings, or other substantial items without prior approval.
    If furniture or other property is moved, it must be returned safely to its original location before checkout.
    Additional labor, repair, or replacement costs may be charged when our team must restore the property because furnishings were moved, disassembled, damaged, or left in an unsafe location.

    11. Trash & Waste
    All household trash must be bagged and placed in the designated trash containers for the property.
    Please do not leave trash, food, or debris outside the home unless specifically instructed. This is especially important in areas where wildlife may be present.
    Excessive trash, loose/unbagged waste, prohibited disposal, or trash left outside may result in additional cleanup or disposal charges when extra service is required.
    Property-specific trash-day instructions, dumpster locations, bear-resistant container requirements, or can placement instructions must also be followed.

    12. Quiet Hours & Neighbor Courtesy
    Unless a property-specific rule or local ordinance requires otherwise, quiet hours are 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM.
    During quiet hours, outdoor conversation, music, televisions, vehicles, and other noise should be kept at a level that cannot reasonably disturb neighboring properties.
    Guests must comply with all applicable noise ordinances, HOA requirements, and community rules throughout the reservation, even outside designated quiet hours.

    13. Mail & Deliveries
    Please contact Guest Services before sending mail or packages to the property. Delivery availability and mailbox access vary significantly between locations.
    Prime Properties and the property owner are not responsible for delayed, misdelivered, stolen, or inaccessible packages or mail.
    Longer reservations may require alternate mailing arrangements or additional occupancy documentation. When necessary, guests may be asked to use a local post office, carrier pickup location, or other delivery option.

    14. Pests, Wildlife & Natural Conditions
    Many Prime Properties homes are located near forests, lakes, mountains, desert areas, or other natural environments. Seasonal insects, wildlife, pollen, dust, snow, vegetation, and other natural conditions may occasionally be present even when a property receives routine professional maintenance or pest treatment.

Amazing Stay!

We had the best weekend staying here. It was very easy to get in contact with the owners and they replied almost immediately to accomplish our needs. Just a short drive to Bay St. Louis, this house was in a quiet neighborhood but not far from all the action. We absolutely loved it an will be back!

Lovely getaway!

We stayed at this beautiful house for 2 nights and truly enjoyed everything about it. The neighborhood was quiet and relaxing, and the short walk to the beach was refreshing. The house was as described, even better in my opinion, and the fact that everything you needed was provided made our stay way more comfortable. We loved it so much and will definitely return in near future!

Fantastic quiet family getaway

What a great house and yard! The backyard had everything you need including a pool volleyball net, lounging chairs and lots of pool toys. The house is even better than the pictures with a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and great decor. The owners responded to our questions in minutes. The gulf is a short walk away and there are restaurants and stores just a few miles away. We can’t wait to go back

Our week was spent relaxing in peaceful tranquility! Our host was very accommodating and accessible during our stay! We also enjoyed going out to several restaurants close by that had the friendliest staff and delicious food and drinks! We are already planning on a return trip to this magnificent home and town!

Very nice and very clean place. House was stocked with everything we needed. Also had plenty of seating around pool, beach chairs, a wagon, and games like cornhole etc. The hosts were so easy to communicate with. Location is great…still really close to Bay St. Louis. I truly can’t think of anything they could have done to make our stay any better. Would definitely stay here again.

We just left the Heron Retreat, and the property is absolutely amazing. The home is beautiful, spacious, exceptionally clean, and even more impressive in person than it appears in the photos. Every room feels thoughtfully designed, comfortable, and well maintained.The pool and outdoor areas are outstanding and were perfect for relaxing and spending time together. The kitchen is well equipped, the bedrooms are comfortable, and the entire house has everything needed for a first-class stay. The location is also excellent, with the beach just a short walk away and easy access to everything in the Pass Christian andf Bay St. Louis area.The communication with the host was also excellent. They made everything easy from start to finish, which made the experience even better.It is clear that the owners have put a great deal of care into creating a special experience for their guests. Heron Retreat truly feels like a luxury beach getaway, and we could not be happier with our stay. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an exceptional Gulf Coast vacation home.
